About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), Office of the Director, through the Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations, is procuring Medical Support Assistant (MSA) and Program Manager services for the NIH Patient Support Services Department. This sole source procurement is justified under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1), based on urgent and immediate service requirements necessary for patient safety, regulatory compliance, and operational continuity. The incumbent contractor, BG Consulting Services, has been selected as the sole source because they currently provide these services, meet all necessary qualifications and certifications, and are the only source reasonably available to maintain continuity. No formal evaluation criteria are specified in this Notice of Intent, as this is a bridge contract continuation rather than a competitive solicitation. The close date for comments regarding this procurement is March 11, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST, with comments to be submitted to Ryssa Nix, Contract Specialist, at Ryssa.nix@nih.gov.
This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation. BG Consulting Services is the incumbent contractor continuing services under existing contract 75N90022D00013. The contract is a three-and-a-half-month bridge arrangement spanning from March 16, 2026, through June 30, 2026, to bridge the gap until a new competitive services contract can be completed and awarded. The specific contract value is not disclosed in this Notice of Intent. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 561110 (Office Administrative Services) and PSC Code R499 (Support – Professional: Other), and no solicitation document or quotation request will be issued as this is a sole source contract action exempt from FAR Part 6 competition requirements.
